Ring Jacket Japan - Page 3

Went to Khaki's of Carmel yesterday. Trying on Ring Jackets was near the top of my list of things to do. Both Jason of Brokeandbespoke and I tried them on and were very impressed. The quality of workmanship, fabric and the shoulder are amazing.

Here is the last herringbone they had in stock:

I am normally a Euro 52. I sized up to a 54. The fit was flawless. Just a little nip in the waist and a little on the sleeves and it would be perfect. I had lots of range of motion. I would say the shoulder and the movement were what impressed me the most. But when I saw the price, that blew me away. There isn't anything close to this fit and quality for the price. It beats Cucinelli at 3x the price.

They also have a navy jacket with the same great fit. I think at $990 it is the very best navy jacket value anywhere. This isn't a big boxy typical American cut. This is for guys who can wear a more trim fit but without being a skinny cut. If you are considering a blue blazer, get it.

This cut is unique to Khaki's of Carmel. I don't know for sure how it compares to say The Armoury but would assume it is a bit longer in the body but without being a Long.

The buttons are nice as are the inside details. It looked like some hand and some machine stiching inside.

This is their first shipment. Most smart retailers and manufacturers build gradually to work out any details. I'm told they will have a much greater selection for Spring which means January. They also discussed shirts and many other Ring Jacket items. This could really get interesting in a few months.

Their shirts are extra slim from what I remember. I can see their blousons being very popular but they also fit extra short/slim - I'm wear EU46 and their size M is snug on me.
